What is a Mother's Ring?

samplemothersringI was surprised to find that my husband does not know what a Mother's Ring is.  As someone who runs gift websites and writes about gifts sometimes he thinks I am giving him a hint but the truth is I was curious what he knew.  My sisters and I gave my Mother a Mother's ring many years ago.

A Mother's ring includes the birthstones of both the children and the mother, with the Mother's being larger than the rest.  At least that is the traditional kind.  There is also the stackable Mother's ring that is basically small thin rings stacked one on top of the other.

A Mother's ring can be a good Mother's day gift if the mom involved likes jewelry and you have some sense of her taste.  When shopping for Mother's rings you should also search for family rings because they can also be categorized that way as well.  In that case you could add the birthstone of the father of the family to the ring too.

Depending on the amount of family members involved some Mother's Rings styles can appear gaudy so be sure to take that into consideration as well.  Since these rings have to be customized based on the birthstones involved give yourself some lead time for ordering and shipping.

Luckily you still have a 2 weeks!
